摘要
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic, chronic, and inflammatory disease of unknown aetiology with a genetic predisposition. The advent of new biological agents, as well as the more traditional disease-modifying anti rheumatic drugs, has resulted in highly efficient therapies for reducing the symptoms and signs of RA; however, not all patients show the same level of response regarding disease progression to these therapies. These variations suggest that RA patients may have different genetic regulatory mechanisms. The extensive polymorphisms revealed in non-coding gene-regulatory regions in the immune system, as well as genetic variations in drug-metabolizing enzymes, suggest that this type of variation is of functional and evolutionary importance and may provide clues for developing new therapeutic strategies. Pharmacogenetics is a rapidly advancing area of research that holds the promise that therapies will soon be tailored to an individual patient's genetic profile.. Chronic and severe forms of gout are frequently wrongly evaluated from the clinical standpoint. (C) 2008 Elsevier Espana, S.L. All rights reserved.
